Icon41 Sharks / Hurricanes new unis

icethetics with an update this week. Sharks with new unis. Pretty slick, gotta say. Also like those original Carolina jerseys, should be the primary home and they should have never switched. They won the cup in them; how can you change it? tsk tsk. Also I am technologically incompetent so you'll have to copy / paste the link lol

Very nice looking uniforms, I have to say. I wonder what an alternate uniform for the Flames would be. Bringing back black?

Not a fan of the Sharks’ new uniforms. I have always liked the teal but the whole uniform feels like too much of a good thing. They had a great jersey when the first Reebok uniforms were released when they had full striping and added the orange piping. It’s the same for me as when the Avs went to the blue pants. Maybe a more cohesive look, but the black pants added a nice contrast to some bright and non traditional hockey colours.

Hurricanes’ jerseys are great though.

Like the Sharks ones. Particularly the full teal, which would make a great set of pyjamas.

Well Carolina dropped the red home jersey this year, so they will be black only st home outside of this "new" third jersey.

Sharks look good because like Colorado, they dropped black helmets and pants and went with a primary jersey color instead.

Also, Vegas has changed their home jerseys to the yellow gold ones, and the graphite ones are now the thirds.

I liked the black pants/gloves/helmets for the Sharks, although the on-ice video of their new look didn't look as bad as I thought it would.

I still don't like the switch to blue for the Avs.



The Canes bring back good memories of 2006, so no complaints there.

Agree 100%. Those Sharks unis with black pants would be unreal.

Hurricanes should have a) never left those reds, b) stop using uniforms without the primary logo (neither their home / away has the logo on it this year?) and c) keep the uni they won the Cup in.

They also have that unique Hurricane flag striping too.

They will have an alternate this year. It’s going to be the Blasty reverse retro jersey.

Wish the sharks used a bit of grey/silver in there, but the real equipment looks awesome. Big time improvement

Really? I like the all teal. Reminds me of this:



More teams should go with a one solid colour for jersey and pants/socks. The Flames look great in all red. Black pants look a bit too generic for me.

Generally speaking, I actually find that most teams nail their initial / first concepts and should just leave them alone. Do the special / unique stuff for third jerseys.

But so many teams just fumble around in the dark. If the Sharks just kept their original uniform it would have been fine. It looks awesome. Same for Carolina, Minnesota, etc.

@bax

Isn't everyone doing reverse retro this year though? Not exactly an alternate uniform imo.




Also why is it that I am able to quote some posts and not some others?
I was trying to quote bax's reply to me, but I get a blank reply.

Flames will have a new reverse retro this year, every team will.

They will be converting the old reverse retro (Blasty) to an alternate uniform.

The Blasty is going to be the alternate, and another jersey is going to be the Flames reverse retro. Rumours are it is a black version of the 90s pedestal jersey.
